Dear Mary:
Thanks for your letter received this morning.
No, I haven't heard anything further from your father, though I wrote him two or three times urging that Tom he permitted to go home with you, and that you he relieved from the trip to Europe, which doesn't seem to appeal to you. Now that I think of it, there is just a chance that I did not argue on this latter point, though my recollection is that I spoke of it, at least. I did urge very strongly, however, that Tom he allowed to go home this summer. No word has come in answer to my letters, so that I don't quite know what to do. Fortunately, travel is seemingly going to be very light this summer, so that an early reservation may not be required. Under the circumstances, I imagine that our best policy is to wait a little longer and in the hope that we shall have some more definite word from your father.
If I don't get my expected chance to drop off at New Haven and see you during the spring, I do hope you will find it possible to run up to Andover so that I can at least get a glimpse of you before you start back lot the homeland. In the meantime, I will look up your trunk as suggested and forward it to you. I hope it can be found, but since my house was moved last summer. I have sometimes found it a bit difficult to locate my own belongings.
With all best wishes, believe me
Ever sincerely yours,
